Voltron Nevera is the name of the new roller coaster in Europa-Park. It was a long road to the opening with many test runs and safety checks - including approval by the TÜV. Project manager Patrick Marx gives an insight into the construction of what is now the 14th roller coaster in the theme park. 00:00 Long-awaited roller coaster The new Voltron roller coaster in Europa-Park is causing euphoria among theme park fans. Voltron breaks several records, including the steepest launch in the world. The new Croatia themed area has been created around the coaster. 00:33 Time pressure on the construction site In December 2023, the attraction will still be a major construction site. The construction of the roller coaster has already taken almost two years. A carriage frame is already running on the track, but without seats. The time pressure is great: at one point on the coaster, everything has to be screwed back on. Because to ensure the safety of passengers, precision is essential right now. 03:18 Dummies ride roller coaster The Mack family of entrepreneurs had already specialized in rides before the theme park opened in Rust, and they delivered them all over the world. In 1975, the first visitors flocked to Europa-Park. There was also a lot of crowding at the start of the season this year. But Voltron remains closed to park visitors for the time being. Behind the construction fence, every scenario on the roller coaster is tested with dummies. 07:32 TÜV checks safety Roller coasters also have to go through the TÜV. The team examines every last detail and simulates breakdowns during the ride. 24 hours before the opening, all that was left to do was move a decorative rock that had been built too close to the ride. Now it's time to put the finishing touches to the themed area. 12:23 The opening ceremony The time has finally come: the Mack family is opening the new Croatia area. The Voltron roller coaster has many sensors built into it - as soon as one of them reports something unusual, it is stopped. This still happens quite often on opening day, but the fans don't mind. #europapark #leisurepark #rollercoaster Subscribe to the Landesschau channel: http://x.swr.de/s/landesschauabo Welcome to the official YouTube channel of the SWR Landesschau!
